Hi everybody and we are going to answer more of your cycling related cycling and triathlon related questions today

And we're also going to go over a number of different things

We've had a lot going on personally here and Chad

You specifically you're back yep. I'm back from Italy. Yeah, you're now officially a world traveler

First time overseas right yep. Yeah, well, you've been out of the country but never across the Atlantic Mexico

Basically, so that's I think I may have dipped into Canada once. Yeah, that's about the extent of it

So what'd you go do

So we talked about this before but I did the last week of the juriditalia. So I attended what team were you on?

Oh, it was part of travel so we did

We interacted with tracks have second frito, but nah, I just went on my own

So it was a it was a truck travel trip though. We paid for that truck handles everything pretty much everything

They give you a couple days where you're on your own, but for the rest of it. It's pretty structured and pretty handled

I didn't have to think about a thing

Overall, how how'd you like it? I liked it a lot my only

Criticism and it's not even aimed directly at truck travel is that there was a little too much structure for me

I would have liked to kind of freewheel it a bit more than

Then was allowed and freewheel not meaning actual coast on your bike

But you're talking about just have more time just more time to do my own thing and and there's a lot packed into seven days

I would like to honestly I could have stayed in the first place

We with first place we went to was Borneo and I could have stayed there for the entire trip and just really from there
